![]() Discoveries abound at Math & Science Night!
Thursday, March 7, 2019 7pm Ben-Hem Cafetorium
THE REGISTRATION FORM IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE. THE DEADLINE TO REGISTER IS FEBRUARY 28, 2019. What is Math & Science Night? This event is a fun way to encourage scientific thinking and allow students to showcase their knowledge and interest in a wide range of math and science concepts.
Students may create a display board that explains a math concept, a scientific topic, or the results of an experiment.
Students may also bring in a model or other visual aid to demonstrate their math or science concept.
During the event, students will talk about their project and answer questions from other participants. The entire Ben-Hem community is invited to attend and view the projects.
Who can create a math/science project? Any student in K-4th grade. You may have up to 2 students per project. Each presenter will receive a certificate of participation. What are the rules for each project? • Adults can help gather materials, supervise any experiments, and help to build the display. • Experiments cannot be performed during the Math & Science Night. However, brief demonstrations are permitted as long as they meet all of the remaining criteria of the event. • Models, demonstrations, and other visual aids are permitted; however, they must fit with your display board on one-half of a cafeteria table. • No nuts of any kind can be used in your display. • Please indicate on the form if you require an electrical plug. We will do our best to place you near one; however, please bring any extension cords needed. • Any and all visual aids, models and/or demonstrations must not involve liquid substances (though at- home experiments may). • No glass permitted. • No living animals are permitted. • No flammable substances are permitted. In addition, it's important that each student practices safe experiment techniques at home. Parent supervision is encouraged. Where can I go if my student needs help picking a project?
